Comic Con Bound!

July 9th, 2012 | Posted in Personal by Meli

This really snuck up on me, but tomorrow I’ll be leaving on a jet plane to LA, where I will be meeting up with some of my most favorite people to hang out and relax. You can refer to it as the calm before the storm that is San Diego Comic Con! I am fortunate enough to be going as press again with my dear friend & partner in crime, Rosy Cordero, of Accidentalsexiness. We will be live tweeting from our joint project’s account, so make sure to follow & keep up with us at @soblogalicious! We will also be hosting a live hangout straight from the source from our Google+ account, so make sure to add it now! Additionally, I will be taking some street style photos to share with all of you on the blog when I return. Don’t think Comic Con is a fashion mecca? You’d be surprised, my friends.

I am so excited for this adventure – I’m sure you all remember how great it was for me a couple of years back. I met some pretty astounding people and made some great connections. I hope to do all that and more this time around!

And if you are feeling a little disheartened about my absence, fear not! The lovely Aurora, editor of Where South Florida, will be taking over the blog while I am gone. Be nice to her, and show her your love! I’m sure she’ll be sharing some amazing content in my stead!

Two Babes instead of one hottie

June 13th, 2012 | Posted in Blog, Geekery, News by Meli

Although there is no hump day hottie today (sniff), I wanted to share some other lovables. Mainly, that you should all check out & follow my side project with the lovely Rosy of Accidental Sexiness, The Blogalicious Babes. We will be recording our first vlog this weekend (squee) & have this fun teaser trailer out for your viewing pleasure:

Even better is that we just got word that we will be covering this year’s San Diego Comic Con as press! I’m so excited to do some interviews with my favorite cast members and especially to bring a fun daily vlog to you all straight from the source! I’m also going to be taking pictures of great street style throughout the event and sharing them with all of you right here on Melificent! And don’t worry, there will still be a lot of content while I’m gone – the fabulous Aurora will be guest blogging for the entire week!

With that said, I hope you all have a great Wednesday!

An Ode to Comic Con

July 21st, 2011 | Posted in Geekery, Personal by Meli

I’ve had such good memories at Comic Con the past two years.
I think that’s why it makes me so sad that I will not be in attendance this year.
I can’t mourn my loss for too long though. The only reason I am not
going is because we are going to Europe in November, so complaining just
feels a little silly. However, that doesn’t mean that I can’t reminiscence about all the
good times I did have. Here are some of my most favorite moments from SDCC
2009 and 2010. Looking forward to 2012!
